Intersectionality: Understanding Our Interconnected Identities

In this episode of the WhoTheF*ck? podcast, I speak with Gina Gold – comedian, author, eco-feminist, and all around awesome human. Gina and I discuss the concept of intersectionality and why it’s important, particularly for women, to understand how our interconnected identities entwine.

We talk about racism, sexism, and the stigma against mental health. Gina shares stories about her past that made her who she is today, including her experience as a sex worker.If you haven’t yet discovered Gina, you’re going to love her. Her energy is addictive, and the conversation we have flows effortlessly.We talk about serious, heavy topics yet somehow, through it all, Gina continues to shine her radiant light.We discuss:

• Intersectionality and how one person can experience multiple layers of oppression
• Eco-feminism – what it is and why you need to know about it
• The objectification and over-sexualization of women
• ADHD and our mutual later-in life diagnosis
• The importance of mental health and decreasing stigma
